How To Make This Butterscotch Cool Whip Pie Recipe
Making this delectable pie involves mixing up a dreamy butterscotch pie filling and spreading it in a buttery graham cracker pie crust. Add a dollop of whipped topping, and you are ready to enjoy this treat.
OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS
This recipe needs to chill in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours before serving. You can most definitely make this a day before so that it is ready when you need it.
STEP ONE: Using a medium-sized mixing bowl and a hand mixer on medium-high speed, beat the softened cream cheese for 1 to 1½ minutes until smooth.
PRO TIP:
Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps in the cream cheese mixture.
STEP TWO: Sprinkle the instant pudding mix over the cream cheese and continue mixing for 1 more minute until well combined.
STEP THREE: Add the marshmallow fluff to the pudding mixture and continue mixing just until incorporated.
STEP FOUR: Fold in the thawed Cool Whip.
STEP FIVE: Spread the Cool Whip pie filling into the premade graham cracker crust. Chill in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight. Slice into 8 servings and garnish the outer edges of the slices with whipped topping if you wish.
PRO TIP:
If you are transporting the pie, we recommend sitting the whole pie inside a glass or metal pie pan to give it more stability. You can also flip the plastic insert in the premade crust. This makes a perfect lid for the top of the pie.
How To Serve
Serve this rich and creamy butterscotch pie as part of your holiday meal, or simply anytime you have a butterscotch lover in your midst.
You could go with a classic vanilla ice cream to complement the creamy texture of the pie or perhaps whip up some homemade caramel sauce to double down on the decadent sweetness.
A warm mug of pumpkin spice latte or homemade hot chocolate to drink is always a classic choice to wash this treat down.
